Duped Tax Payer Los Angeles, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Nov 18, 2010 Sounds like he hit his own eyes with the screwdriver. The logic is not there.
honu Long Beach, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Nov 18, 2010 Judged: 1 Ohhh puleeeeeze, knocked unconcious by the lid off a jar of peaches!!!? Give it a rest... He "screamed" for his wife... what, to save him from a jar of demonic fruit? Dude, grow a pair... or have your wife open the fruit jars in the future.

That lid must have been shot out of a cannon. Who was the judge and doctor? I'd like $150,000 too. Hot coffee at Ralph's, hmm.

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Scorpio

Today's Lunar Eclipse at the Full Moon stirs up powerful emotions during the next two weeks (as it has done since the Gemini Solar Eclipse last month), and it may not be a very pleasant experience. Are you feeling rather compulsive and obsessive? Financial issues could be a problem,, especially if they appear to threaten your sense of emotional security. Don't let jealousy or envy make you do things that will set other people against you.
